Donald Trump Hawking Nutritional Products
Vitamins aren't what come to mind when we hear the name Donald Trump, but in his latest business venture the Donald is teaming up with Ideal Health, a nutritional products company.
Renaming the company The Trump Network, he is claiming that the marketing program could provide extra income for people suffering through the recession.
Would-be salespeople purchase a marketing kit to sell the products as well as recruit other salespeople to get a cut from their sales as well.
But just because Donald Trump slaps his name on there it doesn't guarantee success. Daniel Howard, marketing professor at Southern Methodist University explains:
"People are more easily persuaded when they want to believe in something. Someone comes along with a big name like Donald Trump and pitches riches, it captures peoples' attention and interest. If he made so much money, they think, 'I'm glad I'm on board.'"
But he adds the ominous fact: "Multilevel marketing is a tough business, and most people don't make much money."
Sounds like BS to us, Donald!

Derek "Not Gay" Hough: On Why His Sister Is Single
Where Was Yeezy?
Sounds suspiciously like Amway to me, Trumpy. You ain't foolin' me!
I wouldn't buy anything with his name on It. he is nothing but a male shoveness PIG and has NO Class or DIGNITY!!!!!
This guy is a sell out. He's making money on selling his name and he's stooping to the level of MLM scams. What a joke.
smells like a pyramid scheme to me
My inlaws recently got into this rip off. They had to buy $400 worth of vitamins and some kit that tells you what vitamins your body is lacking by peeing on some stick.
You have to persuade OTHER people to sign on.
One inlaw already jumped ship because it was useless.
I don't know if perez is really qualified to give out business advice.
I would never buy anything from this pompous waste of oxygen
Desperate career move on Trump's part. Wonder what would make him do this? His career must be on the downslide. People don't make money even at successful MLM schemes…that is except the person/people at the top…i.e. those who start them. That would be Trump. But it's a very bad career signal to make b/c it's the bottom of the barrel business wise. He would be better off getting into online porn. Now there's a recession-proof business. The less money people have the more their interest in online porn. And one of the best businesses is online gay porn. I know b/c I was offered a job in that industry - in charge of advertising sales. It's huge. pun intended.
All that money and he cant get anybody to trim those wooly ugly eyebrows!!
He's a dirty old skeezer. No redeeming qualities whatsoever.
his face looks like a dried up orange peel.
Trump is like herpes, just keeps coming back…
Maybe HE should take them! He needs all the help he can get with his nasty attitude, fugly appearance and BALDNESS!
What a shyster. He and his offspring should jump into the nearest garbage chute and then they could all endorse the new TRUMPSTER DUMPSTER. Large enough to hold even the biggest blowhards.
Doesn't this guy ever feel embarrassed?? I'm embarrassed for him…and I am not a fan.
If Donald says it's good, then it is great. Just bought a case of his vitamins. Best vitamins I ever had. Never felt better in my life. Thank you Donald. Please let me know what else I should buy with your name on it.
His hair STILL looks better than yours dumbass.
You can see the goggle marks on his eyes from the tanning bed. Yuck!
